Science and Electricity "Loss striking," continues Dr. Sio gel, "though of no .smaller importance, is the function of electricity iu the realm of science. Apart from its own intrinsic interest as a separate brain-M of science, it ha;. stimulated and led to successful work its older sister scie^.r s, expanding the realm of chemistry and physics, endowing them with new means of observation and more efiici ent arms, and thus preparing mow an J important results, llius, for instance, the discovery of electro-nuigneti;: waves ..as re.-ill ted in tile development of wir !e.sj t-iegrapiiy; then we iiavj such h-^cinl -ranches of clectro-phem s try, ti liei rinmatin nf high spw-.s and big- t-:npo:atures, etc. Electri i ty lias iiiniished the mathematical i with new problems and the lawyer willi new tasks. lSlectricity has not oily supplied medical men with new mom of diagJio.,is (X-rays, etc.), but lias done direct service in the cure or re lief of many complaints. . . .

Cabby's Story. "Some ladies is fearful stingy. I had one t'other day"—here Tom Wliip pem, the caibman, smiled affectedly at his companion, drew an imaginary skirt, toyed with an invisible ])ug dog and took two or three steps "with a mincing gait. "'Is your 'ansom disengaged;' says' she. " 'Yes'rn,' I answers. " 'I trust your springs are in Uor-1 der?' she says again. j " 'Ex'lent—Al,' I says. ! " 'Well, then, cabman, you may j drive me to Regent place, No. 901; but be a-awful careful, for pooah deali King Charlie has been so bad late ly.' "The dog was one of them spaniels i that's prison-cropped on the body, but wears the 'air of their heads long like a hopera singer. Well, in she gets, an' j I drove hoff to the toon of the 'Dead March.' By an' bye we gets to the destination, my lady steps liout, an' hinto the 'ouse, and I makes sure of a tip of half a crown at the lowest.

Two Men. From Mr. R. Olds, 121 Bell-street, Wangarmi, N.Z.:— "About two years ago I was suffer ing from a wealc back and kidney trouble so badly that I was hardly able to move about owing to the excrucia ting pain. My digestion was affected also. I went to a doctor, but had no faith in his treatment. Then I was advised to try Warner's Safe Cure, and after taking that medicine for a short time I found that it was doing me so much' good that I continued to take it. Now I am in the best of health." Prom Mr. J. Colgan, Guildford-road, Maylands, Perth, WA.:— "I have taken Warner's Safe Cure v ith most gratifying results when suf fering from a severe attack of liver and kidney trouble. I had pains in the back, under the shoulder blades, a heavy, dull pain in the temple and over my eyes, and a ringing sensation in my ears. At times I would seem comparatively well, but would then be attacked with the most distressing symptoms, feeling peculiar pains in all parts of my body. My appetite be c...

THE BRIGHT SIDE. "Be an optimist!" The speaker was ex-President Taft, the scene a New Haven dinner. "Be an optimist! Emulate tlie poor old tramp! "A poor old tramp was plodding along during the first snow ot' the sea son. The gelid and moist air pierced through his flimsy rags. His hands were blue with cold. Nevertheless lie shuffled along cheerily enough, through the two inches of snow that covered the footpath! "And this poor old tramp, thus shuffling along, smiled optimistically and remarked: 'There's one good thing about snow: it hides the holes in yer shoes.' "

NEVER MIND OUR TROUBLES. Learn how to tell a story. A well told story is as welcome as a sunbeam in a sick-room. Learn to keep your own troubles to yourself. The -world is too busy to care for your ills and sorrows. Learn to stop croaking. If vou cannot see any good in the world, keep the bad to yourself. Learn to hide your pains and aches under a pleasant smile. Learn to meet your friends with a smile. The good-hu mored man or woman is always wel come, but the dyspeptic or hypochon driac is not wanted anywhere, and is a nuisance as well.

ENGLISHMEN STILL. (So.w. foii tiih Native Bohn.) We are sons of St. George, and we're Eng lishmen still. United by blood, though wo'ro severed by son; _ j List others deny aud predict as they will, : The proof of our title i£i Nature's decree. No distance or change of a clime can estrange !

LITTLE BRAIN WAVES. | Be good and you'll be happy—and probably poor, A well-bred child never reproves Its parents in public. Give some men an inch of rope and they'll rope you in. To make things come your way it is necessary to go after them. Blessed is the man who doesn't give offence. Also he's unusual. Some married men make ideal com panions—away from home. Flirtation is the best game for two that has ever been invented. There is no woman who does not believe herself an exception to a rule. Marriage means a constant obliter ation of self, a constant "give up." Most people are like eggs—too full of themselves to hold anything else. A woman resents hearing her hus band abused. It Is usurping her pri vilege. Delusions are like girls; we don't care to hug them unless they are at tractive. Love is the only thing in the world, and women who can't get it have tea instead. It is no use bluffing unless you have something to bluff with; and then you have no need to. Happy indeed is the man...

KEEP ON KICKING! Two frogs one day—so runs the tale— Went out to reconnoitre; Wanting something to commandeer To make their belts feel tighter. They fell—hut how I cannot tell (I did not see them do it) — Into a pail of buttermilk, And soon began to rue it. They kick'd, and kick'd, and kick'd again, But all their strength seemed wasted. They- thougut of home, out in the. fields, And all the joys they'd tasted. They slipped and climbed, they climb ed and slipped. They spluttered execration; Till one cried out, "I'll jack it up!" 'Twas his last exclamation. He lost all hope, gave up the fight, And sank 'neath milky waters; His mate kick'd on, resolved to see Again his wife and daughters. He jump'd and kick'd till he could feel The milk around him churning; And in his breast, though cold his blood, The hope of freedom burning. The milk grew hard, the butter se,t; On it his feet he rested; Climb'd to the top. Success at last! Through pluck he'd not'been bested! Moral. When things look b...
